The policing was entirely consistent with how far right protestors are generally policed in the USA - when Police generally regarding themselves to be on the same side as the protestors - and the complete antithesis of how peaceful liberal, progressive or BLM protests are policed, where the violence is generally instigated and amplified by the police.

And was it not Trump's Justice dept. which refused the mayor's request for National guard support? Who needs the National Guard when you have the Proud Boys in control?

This was the preparation for a Black Lives Matter peaceful protest this summer. Members of the National Guard were deployed near the White House ahead of peaceful protests against police brutality. Quite a difference. 🤔 pic.twitter.com/CBGIykqmsa

It was intentional to let it happen! The additional troops of the National Guards were NOT called. The Capitol and legislatures of a Joint Meeting were left unprotected as Trump's mercenaries marched towards the Seat of US Government ... the enemy of Trump for not letting him have a second term.

🚨🚨🚨

Amazing statement by the Secretary of Defense.

Note whom Secretary Miller and Chairman Milley did NOT speak to: President Trump.
